  1. RabbitWolfie

    Hachimura got one DNP and said NEVER again. Been balling ever since

  2. Rui continues to dominate. Great shot creator, plays well with Bron and AD. Defense was spectacular. Ham needs to play him with AD and over Wenyen, Beas & Troy Brown. Rui solidified his Playoffs minutes cmon Ham

  3. adonisgawd

    All we need now is for the nuggets to beat Golden State and we’ll be a Jazz win away from the 5th seed

    #LETS FUCKING GOOOO BABY GREAT WIN I LOVE YOU FUCKERS

  5. RUI BLOCKIMURA

    BIG WIN

    JAZZ L

    TIMBERWOLVES L

    MAVS L

  6. laflameitslit

    this team is so fucking good now. the defense. anthony davis.

  7. ADominant again with the 40 piece

    LeBron triple double

    Please recover fast DLo we need you

    Back in 7th!

  8. Danny_III

    1 more win and we’ll secure a play in spot LFG

  9. KookamungaSlim

    Imagine if we keep playing like this…

  10. ALovelyAnxiety

    that was fun to watch! Dang RUi and Lebron got something going.

  11. nellywentdiamond

    Dallas is finito. Utah is on the grill next. We control our destiny let’s win those back to backs coming up

    Oh btw AD NEED I SAY MORE YA BISHHH

  12. Never again do I want to see a DNP on Rui’s name.

  13. curioushustler420

    Rui deserves the game ball for that performance

  14. bowlcutsrbad101

    From what we’ve seen so far, Rui’s got a great attitude and seems to take feedback well. Hope we keep him for a long time, he could develop into that Kuzma role we had in 2020.

  15. GlassOnion25

    2 games over .500
    Used to pray for times like these

  16. Rui on fire get greedy on Tuesday and Wednesday!

  17. Hachimura, listed as the #1 place to visit in Japan according to tripadvisor

  18. SportsFan8288

    Fellas listen up, if we sneak in the 6th seed it can be absolutely golden, beat the kings then play grizzlies in 2nd round then play nuggets/suns/warriors in the WCF I love our chances

  19. HighlyBaked0

    Rui is the greatest player of all time

  20. Can’t believe we lost against this team last time. We’d be in the playoffs if the medical staff let AD play that game.

  21. WeCantBothBeMe

    The LeBron + Rui connection is so good. I was excited to see it when LeBron returned and it’s even better than expected. Also Rui has shown he’s a good defender.

  22. listinglight778

    40 piece for the brow, man I wish this team was healthy all year, imagine where it would be

    ![gif](giphy|cbNYQmrsJzFUG3Y1HV)

  23. help4college

    Everything is going the lakers way today lol. That blazers win over the wolves was huge

  24. nellywentdiamond

    Rui I love you more than I love one piece and that’s saying something ❤️

  25. ZealousidealDay1633

    Did the Lakers dominate from beginning to end? Idk what to do with my 🤲🏻

  26. TipsyOtter

    You can’t deny rui. Give that man minutes

  27. Jessmayne

    Austin with a just a quiet little 18&8 lol

  28. relivesa

    I’m gonna hope DLo was a precautionary hold because of the competition.

    Shout out to Rui!

    Lebron with the rough shooting. But shows up with the efficient triple double.

    And ADominant feasting again!

  29. Beautiful-History-33

    Rockets commentator after LBJ missed a layup: he doesnt move well

    ***LBJ dunks hard on the next possesion
